Chapter 199 Those who take the initiative to defect

Under the moonlight, a galloping flying monster quietly caught up with the continuous retreat of Yaxia's troops.

Salter was riding on a bear-shaped monster, his eyes were focused, he glanced at the people on the flying mount, waved his hand to stop the soldier who was about to fire a crossbow, and watched the flying monster slowly land on a small place not far away.

In the forest.

"Interesting." Salt adjusted his sleeves and thinking about the man's gesture, the skilled man boldly moved towards the forest alone.

"You're here." A deep voice came from behind a big tree.

"I'm here." Salt walked behind the tree and looked at this horse-faced young man in his twenties.

"Hello, General Salt, this is the first time we meet, I am Lukash Saba."

"Lucas Saba? Who are you, Freya Saba?"

"I am the son of Freya, the second son."

"How did you come here?" Salt said with great interest, "There are rumors outside that I killed your father. Are you here to seek revenge?"

"No, no, no," Lukash shook his head, looking directly at Salt with sapphire blue eyes, "You are not the one who killed my father, why should I seek revenge from you.

Besides, how can I, a mere formal knight, seek revenge from an archmage?"

"Oh, you don't believe what they say?"

"I don't believe a word of it. There is no need for Yaxia to ask for trouble. He insists on arousing the anger of the Andriouya nobles. This is not good for both parties. Only the Vrana family will benefit."

"You are very interesting," Salt patted him on the shoulder, "You want to say that Grand Duke Ansos sent someone to kill his vassal?

Gee, although the conjecture is bold, whoever benefits has a motive, which is interesting.

Then what are your intentions in finding me? Our home in Yaxia has been stolen, and we can’t help you get revenge."

Lukash's eyes met Salt's purple vertical pupils: "Of course Yashai can do it, and so can General Salt.

After all, if I don’t say anything, Anthos will soon step into your army’s trap and use his last bit of energy and strength into it, right?”

Salt's pupils shrank and he looked at him from top to bottom: "So? Aren't you afraid that I will shut you up forever?"

Salter did not choose to deny. For smart people, denial is meaningless. They will stick to the answers they get from their own logic and cognition.

Lukash was so frightened by Salt's powerful aura that his hair stood on end, and a drop of sweat slipped from the corner of his eyebrows, but he still said calmly:

"Don't be afraid, if I can't go back tonight, my brother will forward my suicide note to that idiot Ansos early tomorrow morning.

Compared to your army's grand plan, I feel that my life is still insignificant."

"Threaten me?"

"I don't dare. I'm just afraid of death and want to live."

"Tell me about your purpose. Don't tell me. You are here just to show off your intelligence to me."

Lukash spoke very quickly: "I am willing to help your army defeat that unscrupulous king of Ansos.

The Saba family can contact the Capo family and the Levin family to counterattack when your army ambushes the Andreouya army, and help your army annihilate the army led by Ansos."

Even if you set up an ambush and encirclement, in this world with magic and fighting spirit, it is extremely difficult to annihilate all the enemies.

Even in the plan discussed by John and Salt, they only expected to eliminate most of the enemy army.

But if there is internal response, it will be different.

It is difficult to guard against domestic thieves.

"It's a very attractive offer, so what's the price?" Salter said seriously.

"I don't dare to ask for too much. I just ask that our three families can have a place in Asia and that the title can be maintained."

Salt asked: "Are you sure you can convince them?"

Lukash said confidently:

“The Saba family, the Capo family, and the Levin family are family friends and have been married for generations.

Besides, thanks to the excuse you gave to that idiot Ansos, everyone's patience with him has almost reached its limit."

Looking at the gloomy Salt, Lukash quickly added:

"We don't need to know your specific plan, we will only follow your signal at the critical moment and strike back.

I also know that Yaxia doesn’t like too many people sharing the cake, he just wants to keep a small meal for the three of us after the event is completed.”

People with brains always know how to dispel other people's concerns and thus better persuade others.

"Promise him." Zhong Ming's voice suddenly appeared in Salt's mind.

With Zhong Ming's endorsement, Salt readily agreed to the deal and even wrote a letter of guarantee to Lukash in black and white, ensuring that the titles and properties of the three families would be protected by Yashai.

And Lukash cleverly swore allegiance to Asshai to Styx in public. If he disobeys it, he will die.

Of course, this kind of personal oath is just that, and many family fanatics are not afraid of this.

Salt still has some doubts about the three companies' surrender.

The flying monster once again quietly returned to the location of the Saba family army.

"Succeeded?" Count Anani Saba, who looked like a middle-aged man, asked his younger brother.

"Yeah!" Lukash replied excitedly.

"Are you really that optimistic about Yashai?" Anani asked hesitantly.

"Brother, look at this." Lukash took out a Type 01 breech-loading rifle given to him by Salt and said, "Think about Yashai's magic artillery."

Anani fired a shot under Lukash's guidance and remained silent as he looked at the gun that was enough to threaten the official knight.

Lukash said:

"Based on our equipment alone, we are destined to be no match for Yaxia.

Even though Winkrel stabbed Yashai in the back, can Winkrel, who came from afar, really defeat Yashai? This weapon does not require magic power or fighting spirit to activate!"

"As soon as the Grand Duke of Asia founded the country, he established laws and regulations, built official roads, refined various units, and built various factories. If you look at our lord, hey, what he has done the most in these years is his palace, right?

He didn't even maintain the defensive formations in the western defensive city, otherwise our defense wouldn't have collapsed so quickly!"

"He actually caused a war, lost the war, and still wants to maintain his rule by taking advantage of the vast majority of people. What a stupid and disgusting behavior!"

"Brother, why should we sacrifice our lives for a hopeless country, even risking our own future and that of our family? For the glory of the knights?"

"You are right." Anani sighed.

That night, three closely related count families, Saba, Cabo and Levin, suddenly decided to hold a small private party.

The discussion at the banquet was very heated, but fortunately Lukash had arranged it well so that the meeting was private enough that no servants came near.

Perhaps it was out of dissatisfaction with Ansos' threat to him, or his optimism about Yashai's future, or some other reasons.

In short, after some discussion, the three parties finally reached a consensus.
